Question

Write the absolute value of $-41$.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The absolute value of an integer: The distance of an integer from '$0$' on the number line irrespective of its direction is called the absolute value of that integer. Two vertical bars '$\left|\right|$ ' are used to denote the absolute value.

$\left|\mathrm{a}\right|=\mathrm{a},\mathrm{if}\mathrm{a}$greater than or equal to $0$

$\left|\mathrm{a}\right|=-\mathrm{a},\mathrm{if}\mathrm{a}$is less than $0$, where $\mathrm{a}$ is any integer

Here, $\left|-41\right|=-\left(-41\right)$ ($\because -41<0$)

$=41$

Therefore, the absolute value of $-41$is $41$.
